NPR recently ran an interview with a foster mom who looks after unaccompanied migrant children while they are in the process of being reunited with their parents. It is an insight into the rewards and challenges of this specialist type of foster care. 

In the last two and a half years, Christi has fostered dozens of migrant children, while she and her husband balance their jobs and raise their own children. Her family recently moved to a larger house to provide more space for the foster kids. You can read the whole story, and hear the interview, here
